Powers:Burst is described by Matt Fraction in Uncanny X-Men #515 to be a "Disgraced Kung Fu Speedster". It is unknown at this point whether Burst posesses any other abilities. Burst refers to one of his Kung Fu moves as "Supple Scorpion Strike" and involves a series of frequent jabs.

Bio:Burst first appears along with Bouncing Betty, Thug and Verre, all under the leadership of Lobe. The group arrive at a small coffee bar somewhere "Out West". The group beat and seemingly kidnap the staff member at the bar.
